Description

Environment

Vuetify Version: 3.8.4 Vue Version: 3.5.13 Browsers: Chrome 136.0.0.0 OS: Mac OS 10.15.7

  1. Configure vuetify defaults to have elevated button as default
defaults: {
    VBtn: {
      rounded: 4,
      variant: 'elevated',
      color: 'success'
    }
  },
  1. try to use stepper without defining your own buttons for stepper actions
<v-stepper v-model="step" :items="['item1', 'item2', 'item3']">
        <template v-slot:item.1> a </template>
        <template v-slot:item.2> b </template>
        <template v-slot:item.3> c </template>
      </v-stepper>

Expected Behavior

Research direction
The issue is that v stepper actions do not respect global VBtn defaults. The reproduction shows setting defaults for VBtn (rounded, variant, color) and expecting stepper action buttons to adopt them. Investigate the VStepperActions component source code in the repository (likely in packages/vuetify/src/components/VStepper/). Check how the action buttons are created and whether they use the VBtn component correctly with defaults propagation. Look at the VDefaultsProvider and how defaults are passed down. The fix may involve ensuring that the stepper actions component uses the same default injection as other components. Also check if there are any existing tests or related PRs.
